VLF-ONE Force Material Design

Playing with the material design on our iSeries.

The docs say you trigger it be adding Material=Y to the querystring, and the SP2 docs mention being able to force it, but that only adds the aforementioned querystring parameter.

Is there going to be a way to force it from the page itself. Perhaps with something like adding a materialdesign option to uInitialize

Code: Select all

#VLF_ONE.uInitialize frameworkidentifer("") logonhandlerid(VF_AC026O) passwordchangerid("") mtxtloaderid(UF_OMULTI) themecustomizerid(VLFTHEME) logonexpiry(90) logonheaderpanelid(VLFLOGO) logontrailerpanelid("") materialdesign(Y)
Its going to be pain to get users with bookmarked urls to change their bookmarks so they can use the nicer UI.

While typing this I think I could check the parameters in the create instance and if its not there, add it and reload the page. if is there then go ahead and initialize VLF-ONE.

Yes, the imminent EPC142005 VLF version supports this:

i.e. What the default is when there is no overriding Material=X option on the URL.
